19 Manufacturing and use 9 3 Manufacturing and use Manufacturing ABB Drives has on Environmental Management System (EMS) which covers manufacturing and other functions. The EMS is certified to ISO 400:2004. Use The use of a drive has several positive environmental impacts, such as: Substantial energy savings can be reached using a drive. These savings can be even 50% in pump and fan drives. This means reduced CO 2 and NOx emissions in power plants, due to reduced energy demand. Process control is improved when a drive is used for the control of the motor meaning reduced waste. When a process operates in an optimal way, wear on the equipment (such as conveyors and pumps) is reduced and life time increased. This decreases environmental load. Noise is reduced (in most cases). The drive itself does not cause any emissions while in use.

21 Product disposal 2 4 Product disposal Contents of this chapter This chapter contains product disposal instructions. You can dismantle the drive manually or in a shredding machine. The chapter is divided in two sections on basis of the dismantling method. Manual dismantling Sort the parts of the product are according to their material contents as follows: ferrous metals (plates, screws) aluminum (heatsink) plastics printed circuit boards electrolytic capacitors other. You can recycle metal parts (iron and aluminum) and most materials according to local regulations. For information on harmful materials, see subsection List of potentially harmful materials on page 22.

22 22 Product disposal Mechanical shredding Remove the harmful material before shredding the drive in the shredding machine. See subsection List of potentially harmful materials. List of potentially harmful materials Definitions and regulations of hazardous materials differ from country to country and are likely to change when knowledge of materials increases. The materials used in the product are materials typically used in electric and electronic devices. The list given below is based on the following references:. CEFIC-EECA-EICTA.
